It’s the End of the World As We Know It…

(sing along!) …and I feel fine. (R.E.M.)

I’m sure by now you’ve heard that some people believe the rapture will happen on Saturday May 21st and the world will end October 21st, 2011.

I personally do not believe this will happen. I’m not going to go into why and I’m not looking for any debates. This isn’t what my surprise post is about. It’s about the wonderful quote “If you don’t believe in (or stand for) something, you’ll fall for anything.”

At this point I’m just asking you, do you know what you believe? You DO or you DON’T. And it’s important to realize that everyone is entitled to this…but it doesn’t make either of you right.

Some people believe the world will end in 2011.

Some people believe the world will end in 2012.

Some people believe that no one knows when the world will end.

Some people believe in God.

Some people don’t.

Some people believe in more than one God.

Some people believe that chocolate is the best ice cream flavor.

Some people believe that vanilla is.

Get my point?

Know what you believe in and stand for it. Don’t let someone else’s belief sway you if you don’t feel they’re right. Don’t say things you don’t mean and don’t do things you don’t think you should do.

It’s an easy concept but it’s a hard action. I just wanted to take a few minutes to encourage you. Believe in something. You have as much right as anyone else does.
